so clearly, my husband Wayne is the lesser of the blogging two out of us 🙂
That’s ok.
It has been barely over two months since we received our acceptance phone call – it has been less than two months since we told everyone that we WERE indeed going on the WORLD RACE. (I am still in awe)
It is my dream come true to travel the world sharing the gospel of Christ. Dream come true.
Nevertheless, almost immediately after we were accepted the doubts started to creep in. It’s no surprise to me that Satan showed up. He attacks me with doubt. He attacks me with fear. He attacks me with insecurity. I started to doubt that we were qualified. I started to fear that I wouldn’t get enough quality time with my husband while we were sharing our entire lives with 6 other people. I started to feel insecure in almost every way. I’m not writing this because I am now on a high of confidence and fearless-ness. I’m writing this because God’s faithfulness and still small whisper in my heart are SO much stronger.
“I lean not on my own understanding, my life is in the hands of the maker of heaven!
I give it all to You God, trusting that You’ll make something beautiful out of me.”
I have no doubt that God has called us into the world to share the gospel, to make disciples, who make disciples, who make disciples, so that Christ will be spread like wildfire into the world. God doesn’t call the qualified, he qualifies the called. We are called. I must spend my time clinging to these promises, lest satan get a stronghold in my life and start to beat me down. God promises that the journey will be worth it, so I will continue on.
